As
MasterChef
India
moves
ahead
with
a
season
rooted
in
progress,
partnership,
and
national
pride,
depicting
Desh

Frontfoot
Pe
Chal
Raha
Hai,
Archana
Manoj
Dhotre
and
Rupali
Vikar
Jadhav
step
onto
the
national
stage
with
their
culinary
skills.
The
Devrani-Jethani
duo’s
journey
reflects
how
one
can
confidently
move
forward
to
achieve
greater
goals.
From
working
hard
as
private
cooks
at
customers’ houses
across
Mumbai
to
stepping
onto
MasterChef
India,
Archana
and
Rupali
represent
a
powerful
shift:
women
who
carried
their
craft
from
household
kitchens
to
a
national
stage.
Archana,
expressive
and
passionate,
brings
with
her
the
rich
culinary
identity
of
coastal
Maharashtra,
while
Rupali’s
calm,
composed
approach
reflects
quiet
determination
shaped
by
life’s
responsibilities.
Their
partnership
goes
beyond
the
kitchen;
both
live
and
work
in
the
same
locality,
supporting
each
other
as
professionals
and
as
family.
Their
presence
resonated
deeply
with
the
judges.
Chef
Vikas
Khanna
remarked,
“I
have
never
seen
so
much
love
for
food
in
anyone’s
eyes.
This
is
a
very
big
way
to
reach
your
side
of
the
world.”
For
the
duo,
MasterChef
India
represents
more
than
a
competition;
it
represents
an
opportunity.
Archana
Dhotre
shared,
“MasterChef
India
means
stepping
forward
with
confidence.
From
being
private
cooks
to
representing
Maharashtra
on
a
national
stage
fills
us
with
pride
and
a
deep
sense
of
responsibility.”
Rupali
Jadhav
added,
“This
journey
shows
that
growth
can
come
at
any
stage
of
life.
MasterChef
India
gives
people
the
courage
to
move
ahead,
to
be
recognised,
and
to
believe
that
our
work
truly
matters.
“
Their
story
is
a
reminder
that
MasterChef
India
is
not
just
about
skill,
but
about
resilience
and
Indians
growing
with
pride.
